We THINK they had a test? Haven't we been maintaining seismographs around the world for the past 50 years so that we know for sure?
ABC News radio just reported on the South Korean news report of the test. Everyone's waiting for official confirmation.
Beat most of the media. Bumps

SEOUL, South Korea - South Korean government officials said North Korea performed its first-ever nuclear weapons test Monday, the South's Yonhap news agency reported.
South Korean officials could not immediately confirm the report.
South Korean President Roh Moo-hyun convened an urgent meeting of security advisers over the issue, Yonhap reported.
The North said last week it would conduct a nuclear test as part of its deterrent against a possible U.S. invasion.
They'll tell us real fast if there was an underground test.
just go this in a CNN breaking news email:
-- A South Korean government official says North Korea appears to have conducted a nuclear test, South Korea's Yonhap news agency reports.
Houston is still here.
Sort of.
What?
Now they've done! We're going to motion for a UN vote to condemn this action! That will show them! Kim Jong Il, you have not yet met the fury of a UN condemnation and an angry wag of our collective index finger! You WILL be sorry!!!
Maybe we should all send a nice thank you card to BJ Clintoon for making this possible.
F'ing idiot
Any confirmation of sucsess? Sounds like Kimmy is claiming it but there is no confirmation from anyone else at this point
"We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when...."
Seismic evidence?
Just damn.
If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...
I'll see your pervert and raise you pervert with nukes.
I told my husband and the first thing he asked was "where?" ;)
Are the markets closed for Columbus Day tomorrow? Sure hope so....
We should help them with their testing ...
Impossible!! Jimmy Carter and Madeline Half-bright gave me their personal assurances that they had talked the Mad Troll of Pyongyang out of this nuclear weapons program.
Bill Clinton
This could not have happened if I were President.
John "Vichy" Kerry
I keep telling Kim Jong Il that he should be more concerned about global warming than about nuclear weapons.... I just don't understand why he won't listen to me!
Algore
And if nothing drastic will happen to them, this will be a major encouragement to Iran.
If they did we would be the first to know about it and the first to detect it, we shall wait till the morrow and see what our government will say about it.
